SaveNet Finance Officer
Location: Lusaka, 09, ZM
Company: Plan International
SAVNET FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION OFFICER
ROLE PURPOSE
 SaveNet  is a network organizations that is working with development agencies, private sector organizations, and government to promote financial inclusion among Zambian communities at the grassroots through Community-based financial institutions (CBFIs) popularly known as Savings Groups (SGs). SaveNet started as an idea in October 2012 among promoters of SGs in Zambia.
The overall goal of SaveNet is to promote financial inclusion of economically marginalized communities through scaling up of innovation and best practices that arise out of promoter intervention of SGs using different methodologies. SaveNet intends to achieve this through creation and nurturing of network structures at local, regional and national levels that would enable sharing and dissemination of information emanating from different players promoting various aspects and innovations of SGs.  Through its structures SaveNet will also promote the scaling up of SGs by offering technical assistance and supervising Field Agents and their networks in their areas of operations.  Other activities that SaveNet will promote include: providing structures for business incubation that include pilot-testing of financial products amongst SGs such as micro-insurance; mobile and agency banking; and data collection on tablets/mobile devices (e-recording) as innovations that will improve service delivery/reduce costs amongst SGs promoters and the private sector in rural marginalized communities. To achieve its goal on a sustainable basis, SaveNet will operate as a Social Enterprise (Company Limited by Guarantee) that seeks to grow its income streams so as to wean off from donor support and become an independent, competitive and reliable locally based partner to the government, NGO community and the private sector in scaling up financial services through various SGs based models in Zambia.
